...well, first illustration of the new year. I had to draw Mari because...she's my muse...and my mascot. ^_^ ...but, she sure took a heck of a lot of time to draw! ...not color...draw! I had to fuss over this pose quite a bit, but, I'm pretty happy with the results. ...and then...I had to color and I wanted to bring back an old method that I haven't used in a while, but that I thought would go well with this scene...hopefully add a little sultriness to the image.
...ah, but it's 39 minutes until tomorrow and I'm a little beat. So, in short, I hope she looks alright...because I'm too sleepy to tell. LOL! ...*yawns* Alrighty! HAPPY NEW YEAR, EVERYONE!
...goodness, it's been quite a while since I've uploaded...well, anything. Sorry about that. Quite a lot of things have been happening in my personal life. It's been keeping me rather busy.
In the interim, I've come to realize that my mascot, Mari, has grown into my muse as well. Mari helps me to bring out the assorted emotions and feelings, the beauty and wide-eyed wonder that is the source of my artistic exploration. This is Mari being a bit more vulnerable. Even now, she speaks to me. She's grown on me so much in such a short time. ^_^ Anyway, I hope you enjoy this and sorry for the absence. I'll try to make myself a little more active around here. ^_^
